Monte San Vito, AN, Italy

The association promotes 6 months of artist residencies each year (April–June and September–November), with the goal of hosting 2 artists per month.

Artists will stay on the main floor of an 18th-century frescoed palazzo, with access to:

- a private bedroom and bathroom

- a shared space with a library, kitchen, and relaxation area

-a 40-square-meter studio to be shared with another artist

The residency is open to all forms of art and aims to establish a cultural and artistic hub in the Marche region.

During their month-long stay, each artist is expected to donate one work to the association. Once a year exhibitions will be organized by our curator to showcase selected works.

Throughout the year, the association also organizes additional activities, including:

- Networking and fundraising events

- Open studios to connect artists with the local community

- Workshops
